Brophy-Herb Holly E.; Kostelnik, Marjorie J.; Stein, Laura C.

Young Children, v56 n1 p80-84 Jan 2001

Proposes a four-phase model to promote ethical literacy among preservice and practicing early childhood teachers: awareness, differentiation, analysis of ethical dilemmas, and application of the NAEYC Code in daily practice. Includes a sample case for ethics discussion. Each phase includes a rationale, common myths about professional ethics, and lessons that students learn. (KB)
